Nevada.

By G. W. Colcord

SINCE my last report I have held services in Mason Valley, St. Clair, and Reno. Two persons were baptized at Mason Valley, and one at each of the other places. I have also held a series of tent meetings in Winnemucca, assisted for awhile by Brother F. T. Lamb. At this place five signed the covenant and five others made verbal promises to obey the truth, but because of real or imaginary hindrances, they could not be persuaded to pledge themselves in writing to be loyal to the just government of Heaven. Time will tell how many will fulfill their vows.

Since leaving Winnemucca I have learned that eight adults had signed the covenant, as the result of Brother Lamb's effort at Unionville; and that he hoped for as many more.

Our tent is pitched in Dayton, where we hope to see ripening fruit as the important exercises of our annual camp-meeting draws towards a close. G. W. COLCORD.
